Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: flexbackup

On gusty, the same /etc/flexbackup.conf as in feisty doesn't work
anymore.

Here is the ouput :

flexbackup version 1.2.1 (http://flexbackup.sourceforge.net)
/etc/flexbackup.conf syntax OK

|------------------------------------------------------------
| Checking /bin/sh on this machine... unknown
|------------------------------------------------------------
| Trying "mt defblksize" instead of "mt setblk"
Error setting block size
Neither of these commands worked:
  mt -f /dev/nst0 setblk 0
  mt -f /dev/nst0 defblksize 0


Trying by hand : 
$mt -f /dev/nts0 setblk 0
mt: invalid argument `setblk' for `tape operation'
$ mt -f /dev/nts0 defblksize 0
mt: invalid argument `defblksize' for `tape operation'

Indeed the man file for mt doesn't display 'setblk' as an argument.

Therefore, flexbackup can't be run on gusty.
